Velvety Pumpkin Soup With Blue Cheese and Bacon
this soup is surprisingly delicious! the only modification we made was we sprinkled a few chopped green chives on the soup along with the bacon and blue cheese. Delicious! Will definitely make again!

Fried Rice Restaurant Style
the key to un-sticky fried rice is to use cold rice (i usually make fried rice when i already have leftover rice sitting in the fridge). alternatively, if you're in the mood for fried rice and don't have hours to chill the rice or leftovers sitting in the fridge, try TONIARHODES1's suggestion to put the rice in a large pot (or wok) and stir it around for a several minutes to get some of the water (the factor behind the stickiness) out. ooor... if you have chilled rice and you like your rice semi crunchy, try this with chilled rice! finally, for you garlic lovers, starting with minced garlic (simmer in oil a few seconds before you throw in the veggies) makes this mmm delicious :9 (but less "restaurant style")

Lentil Soup
this was pretty delicious-- i followed the recipe for the most part but took the suggestion to use lemon juice instead of vinegar (i started with half a lemon, but discovered after a couple bites that I loved the lemon taste and ended up squeezing in an extra lemon or two). I also added some hot italian sausages (mmm!) and used trader joe's "Organic Tomatoes--Diced and Fire roasted with Organic Green Chiles" in place of the canned tomatoes. Will definitely make again. Thanks for the recipe! :)
